Reviews
"I’m writing a review about an experience I had 14 years ago in 2009. I was 16 years old and pregnant. Dr.Cortez frowned apon me because of my age and circumstance. She treated me as if she wanted to teach me a lesson and I still remember. She would tell me stories of other teenage pregnancies and how it was a shame. My mom wasn’t listening when I told her how dr.Cortez made me feel. When I decided to open up and request a new doctor I was told it was 2 late. I was rushed through labor and givin a c-section. I was not given the proper time to dialate. Dr.Cortez also cut my daughters head. She had absolutely no empathy for me and was very judgmental. This is a horror I’ll NEVER forget. Fortunately I was able to have a v back in 2019. Ten years later. I had a better experience with a better doctor."
"I’m writing bc I was a patient of Dr. Cortez for years. Today was the last straw with her. If I could give zero stars…I would! In order to post this review I had to rate at least one star. I suffer from really bad severe cramps every month. Dr. Cortez is aware of the details. She’s sent me for ultrasounds thinking it could be fibroids or endometriosis. Thankfully it’s neither of those issues. Ultrasounds I’ve taken that were very painful and uncomfortable, she wants me to endure this pain all over again and take another ultrasound. Why??? The previous results showed I’m healthy and don’t have the issues Dr. Cortez thought I may have. I told her I’m not taking another ultrasound. She then had the nerve to tell me I’m declining all the options she’s recommending. Mam are you listening? Clearly she wasn’t at this point. She told me I didn’t take the ultrasounds because she didn’t see/have my results in my chart.. How is that my problem?? How about you log in your computer like I did. I came home and logged into my patient portal and what do you think I find? Hmmm, that would be my previous history of the ultrasounds Dr. Cortez claim she didn’t have any records of. Ultrasounds that were ordered by who?? Dr. Cortez. She want to put me on birth control for cramps which I don’t need and didn’t help when we tried that route. If anything it made me sick. Kids are pretty much grown and almost grown. I’ve been married 20 + years. Definitely not looking to have any more kids. She suggested I try theBirth control injection every month for the cramps. After reading the reviews and side effects, I’m not interested in any of that. I explained to her I only have severe cramps, I’m not trying to completely stop Mother Nature. All this to say if your doctor don’t listen to you, then it’s time to find a new one who will. Dr. Cortez really showed her true colors today. Very rude and acted like she couldn’t prescribe any medication for these debilitating cramps. She know my history and acted as if she’s seeing me for free and doing me a favor. Once I found the results, I immediately called her office and told Kevin (receptionist) the date of the ultrasound and that Dr. Cortez clearly made a mistake. I still have yet to get an apology or any acknowledgement that she was wrong regarding me taking the ultrasounds. She assumed since my results weren’t in my chart I just didn’t go get that painful procedure done. Wow! Just was very unprofessional! Please don’t pretend like you care now that I’m posting this review. Dr. Cortez should be ashamed of herself not listening to her patients. I live inside this body everyday. I know how I feel."
"I write this review because I think it is important that this doctor should not be practicing her profession, they should take away her license. I had my first pregnancy and since I had my first ultrasound, my baby had no heartbeat. That is news that no woman wants. listen and even more so when they are treating you badly, nurse Nelly is very rude in her way of treating, she has no manners, she always makes you feel very bad and the doctor is no better because a few weeks into my pregnancy I had a natural abortion, my baby came out naturally my body and it was very painful and when I went to the consultation with her she yelled at me, she treated me badly and she wasn't even worthy of giving me an antibiotic or something. Dr. Cortez and her nurse are a danger to pregnant women. That lady doesn't have to be exercising her profession that repents of all the damage that has done to many women the most horrible experience of my life without mercy or heart that lady God save those who unfortunately go with her"
"The person in charge of checking the data is very involved in personal life. Very gossipy and very rude. The doctor and the boy are very kind and professional."
"Best GYN I have been to, and I have had a few! Takes care of me and took wonderful care of my mother, who had her hysterectomy at 72 years old!"
